Dead Rising 2 OTR

So, just wondering if anyone here besides me and Pac ( Who I'm pretty sure has every game on Steam in his inventory) plays Dead Rising 2 Off the Record. From what I've played so far, it seems to be an alright remake of the original Dead Rising 2.

I believe the Super Massager ( a leaf blower that fires dildos) alone makes it worth the money.

Apparently there is still some kinks in the game, which I am praying that they will fix. I am now getting an infinite loading screen whenever I try to go into the Silver or Platinum Strip (The big area in the middle of the map.) Of course, this may or may not have been caused by me slapping the keyboard on my laptop....really hard.

Thats not including the progress that I lost because I hadn't saved in a while. I could rant about it here, but I already ranted at Pac, so I don't really feel the need to bring the pain back.
I will miss my nigh indestructible, 2.25 million dollar hummer that I had....

Honestly I was disappointed with Dead Rising 2, it was released a little over a year and a half late, and it didn't reel me in. IMO I think the first one was amazing, with the 2nd one being alright. Didn't get to really play it that much, but now that you talk about OTR, I might just give it a shot. Is the story mode as good as the first one?

The story mode is actually similar to the story of Dead Rising 2, with some changes, not all of which I have seen yet, only heard about. I never got to play the first game, so I don't know how it compares, but OTR is definitely superior. Check the spoilers for more info.

Unlike the first one, where you were the guy being blamed for the whole outbreak, the accusation has switched to the leader of cure. Also, since Frank is the one who needs zombrex, you no longer have to haul ass back to the Safe Room to apply it, you can do it anywhere.

All of the combo cards from Case West, aside from the gloriousness called the Impact Blaster, are available in OTR, as well as some new weapons.They decided to go back to the Mega MAn outfit, only its Protoman this time. Yes, there is a mega blaster, but its not as OP as it was in Dead Rising 1The DLC outfits from 2 can be found hidden around Fortune City. If you wear the complete set, you get the bonuses.Prices for vehicles have been jacked up. 500K up for each one, and the Chopper Motorcycle isn't in the Yucatan, I have no clue where it is.Chuck Greene snapped and is a psychopath. Burning him with Laser Eyes was really stress relieving. Having a legit Sandbox mode is great (TIR sucked). If you wander around, you can find the survivors from the main game at different times. The best part is, they are hostile and drop 10k each, but the release from killing the ones that were annoying...it was awesome. Some people have said the challenges are stupid and pointless. First off, you have to complete all 30 single player challenges with at least a bronze rank to get the Protoman armor. And some of the games combo cards require you to get GOLD on certain challenges, which is hard. Some of said cards are familiar, like the Boomstick, while some are new, like the Saw blade firing tennis ball machine. To top it off, you have to had killed a certain number of zombies to access each challenge. To open all of the single player ones (I don't know about the Coop ones) you end up having to kill about 10 K zombies. Also, each time you complete a challenge, you get cash depending on your medalLets see, what else....Camera is back....Uranus Zone....vehicle which has a capacity of 8.....oh, and the looters can actually put up a fight. They like to use Molotvs now, and will actively try to blind you with spray paint and jack your shit. Fighting 8 of them at once is not fun at all, and you get to do that while escorting pretty reporter lady. Oh, and the transceiver is hands-free, so you can chat with mission person and commit zombie genocide at the same time.Oh, and apparently you fight a giant mech for one of the psycho battles.

I think the game was totally worth the money. They fixed some of the parts that were crap about Rising 2, and Frank's personality is just some much better than Chucks.

The potential issue is the eternal loading screen glitch, which I have discovered has actually happened to other people, and there are workarounds for it. Also, your weapons may spontaneously decided to not be swung when you attack. Just pop in and out of pause a few times to fix it.

Sorry didn't see a reply to this, but IMHO, the first one was by far better. It was a big hit for a while. Dead Rising 2 fell off the face of the earth only a few weeks after it's release because it's story was sketchy or something like that. A lot of people thought it was too.... 'inside the box' I guess you'd say. Please play the first one ^^ If not I'll buy it and gift it to you, forcing you to play it out of guilt. I think I racked up over 300+ hours on that game, 2nd most played game for me behind Test Drive Unlimited (arguably the best sandbox racing game of all time), which I had I think 1,500 or 1,600 hours played.... Shit, I think I had over 100,000 miles driven in that, if not more.
